The Boulder Cave – Indoor Climbing Gym Pretoria

Welcome to The Boulder Cave indoor climbing gym based in Silverton, Pretoria

About

The Boulder Cave is Pretoria’s only dedicated bouldering gym.

Bouldering is rock climbing stripped down to its raw essentials. Leaving behind ropes and harnesses and just using climbing shoes and a bag of chalk over safety mats, your challenge is to climb short but tricky bouldering “problems” (a route, or sequence of moves) using balance, technique, strength and your brain.

Bouldering is a fun, new type of exercise that you can either do by yourself or with a bunch of friends. It is easy to learn and since no two problems are the same you will never get bored.

We have problems for climbers of all levels with 340m2 wall space and over 80 problems which we regularly change so you will always find something challenging and new no matter your skill of experience .

Private, group and beginners coaching are available, contact us for more details.

So if you’re looking to train for your next epic rock climbing trip, get fit or to just try something new come visit us in Silverton.
